Colleges and Universities A-Z Dartmouth College

<p>Hey!
I want to apply to Dartmouth, amherst, williams, pomona, bowdoin, stanford and princeton.
I went to a very prestigious boarding school in grade 9, then a good public school in grade 10, and for grade 11 and 12, a good private international school. However, because i have switched schools so many times ( due to my parents job) i haven't got a consistant record.
I'm also a UK citizen so i would be applying as an international student.</p>

<p>SAT
740 math
680 verbal
but i plan to take it again in october and get a higher score</p>

<p>SAT II's
- i am planning to take three (spanish, bio and math IIC) in november and hopefully get around 700 on each.</p>

<p>I have a 3.9 g.p.a and i am in the second decile. I also take IB diploma, which is the hardest course offered at my school.</p>

<p>For the EC's
grd 11( my first year at my present school)-
Captain of JV Cheerleading
member of the Service Learning Club - a huge organization in my country
photographer for the yearbook
spanish club
Participated in a weeklong community service program (but it was mandatory for everyone in my grade)
I also got high honors for both semesters and got the presidents award for academic excellence ( if that means anything)</p>

<p>grd 12-
Senior Council Secretary
Captain of Varsity Cheerleading ( we will be competing in national competitions)
Managing Editor for the school newspaper
Service Learning Council Secretary
photographer for the yearbook
spanish club
culture club
investment club</p>

<p>Out of school-
Rescue diver for scuba diving
private pilot licence
gymanstics, dance, snowboarding
acting in a repertory theater
i also model when i have time - does that count as a job?</p>

<p>Other than that, in grade 9 i was in varsity rugby and for both 9 and 10 i was in various dance shows ( but only in school or in a nearby dance school - not at a national level)</p>

<p>Is that enough info?
Thanks!!!!</p>

<p>I have a 3.9 g.p.a and i am in the second decile. I also take IB diploma, which is the hardest course offered at my school.</p>

<p>second decile with a 3.9 GPA?</p>

<p>thats my weighted gpa... unweighted its about 3.5, but according to my GC it will go up becaues during the second year of IB the courses are weighted differently.
Everyone in the first decile has a perfect 4.0 gpa unweighted and there are about 150 kids in my grade</p>

<p>correction to my statement gpa is lacking!!
a 3.5 unweighted is not on paper good enough for dartmouth
you can do your own math and see where it will be when you apply</p>

<p>you will see most gpa 4.0u/4.4w...or 3.9/4.3w....3.8u/4.2w</p>

<p>any lower gpa are recruited athletes, legacy exceptions</p>

<p>not to discourage you from applying but have some match and safeties</p>
